Image use policy
"In general, do not define the size of an image unless there is a good reason to do so: some users have small screens or need to configure their systems to display large text; "forced" large thumbnails can leave little width for text, making reading difficult. In addition, forcing a "larger" image size at say 260px will actually make it smaller for those with a larger size set as preference."

Please note that the final GA review approved the version without manual sizing of images. The images are clear and easy to view at the default size. They are not maps or diagrams. There is no possible justification for increasing the size of these images and overriding individual's set preferences. Yworo (talk) 23:24, 29 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Point of order -- the version the reviewer started with had fixed image sizes and he did not raise that as an issue, though he clearly reviewed the images, and while you may have an argument for the clarity of the first few images at default size, that certainly can't be said for the last.

 * Hello, gents, I do not believe that image size is part of the GA critera, so I wouldn't raise it in a GA review either way. Personally, for me image size is a matter of individual preference and I have no issues with it being forced or not. I have an old machine, so the size and placement of images on my machine often creates issues for others, so I tend not to tinker. I'm more than happy to go with the main contributor's preference in situations like this, which is the usual policy when it comes to other matters of style.

 * The IUP says: "Sometimes a picture may benefit from a size other than the default; see the Manual of Style for guidance." The MoS says:
 * "The thumbnail option may be used ("thumb"), or another size may be fixed.... An option such as "|300px|" resizes the image to the specified width in pixels,... An image should generally be no more than 500 pixels tall and 400 pixels ("upright=1.8") wide, so it can be comfortably displayed next to the text on the smallest monitors in common use; an image can be wider if it uses the "center" or "none" options to stand alone.... Examples where adjusting the size may be appropriate include, but are not limited to, the following: ... Images containing important detail (for example, a map, diagram, or chart), and which may need larger sizes than usual.... Images in which a small region is relevant, but cropping to that region would reduce the coherence of the image."

It is now commonplace for editors to upsize images, since the thumbnail is too small to be suitable for many images—even a majority of them. I fully support Ian Rose's sizings here. Tony  (talk)  08:50, 5 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the reality check, Tony. Cheers, Ian Rose (talk) 09:06, 5 March 2011 (UTC)
